CREST works with industry by bringing a demonstrable level of expertise and professionalism to security and penetration testing, and through the provision of a recognised body for industry to express their security testing needs.

In order to provide this, the CREST scheme is comprised of two tracks; company assessment and individual tester certification. This provides two layers of assurance that your penetration testing provider is capable of understanding your unique security posture and providing up to date recommendations on security improvements. The company assessment and membership provides assurance around methodologies, test hygiene and conduct. Individual certifications provide assurance that the individuals carrying out the test have the appropriate experience and skill.
